Guadalupe Mountains National Park Sights

McKittrick Canyon Review

A desert creek flows through this canyon, which is lined with walnut, maple, and other trees that explode into brilliant colors each fall. Call the visitor center to find out the progress of the colorful fall foliage; the spectacular changing of the leaves can often take until November, depending on the weather. You're likely to spot mule deer heading for the water here.
